I am the gr-grandson of James Alfred Jackson b. 1852 in Springfield, Otsego County son of Leonard James Jackson & Adaline Stockin. Adeline was the Dau of Otis & Prudence who were the parents of at least 12 children. James would marry Mary Carey b. 1851 Dau of Henry & Elizabeth Moore Carey/Cary of Cherry Valley, NY in 1869. James & Mary owned the Jackson Ice Company at lakefront at the end of Bay/Nelson street which is now on land owned by the Otesago Hotel. James would remarry after the death of Mary to Mary Bice of Pierstown. I would be interested in hearing from any descenents/ members of the Jackson; Carey/Cary; Stockin/Stocking families.
We are looking for any information that anyone might have about these people. William was born in the town of Butternuts, Gilbertsville, Otsego County 1850 son of William and Ann Dean Porter. William and Ann came to this country from England around 1849-1850 He later moved to Kemptville, Ontario Canada and married JuliaAnn Fawcett. Cencus records show Julia living with the Thomas Freer family, as a servant, who were neighbors of William and Ann. Date of marriage and Julia's death are unknown. William passed away in April 1915 and is buried in Kemptville Public Cemetery. He remarried Annie Emily Beach on September 21, 1896 in Kemptville Canada. We have no information after 1915. We know that William and Julia had the following children, all born in Kemptville Canada and that they did not stay there through adulthood
1. Mary Charlotte (Rosena) Porter was born October 15, 1873 and married John Edward Hasserd on January 19, 1898
2. Carrie Belle Porter (Caroline) born April 23, 1875. According to William's obit she was in Burwick IL in 1915
3. William Thomas James Francis (Frank) Porter born September 8, 1879, married Mary Mrytle Porter and after her death married Lena Foster. Frank was my grandfather
4. Blanche Porter born February 12, 1885 married Edward Doolittle. The 1910 Census shows them living in the Utica/Rome area with sons Cecil and Harold. Cecil later lived with Thomas and census shows Harold being adopted, so we believe that both Blanche and Edward passed away between 1910 and 1920.
If anyone has any information on our family we would love to hear from you.
Thanks for your help
I am seeking information on John JOHNSON, born in 1783 in Coventry, RI, the son of Hosea and Barbara (GREENE) JOHNSON. He moved ca. 1805 with his parents and siblings to Burlington, Otsego County, NY. His wife’s name was Sally. In 1820 he was living in New Berlin, Chenango County. Where did he go after 1820 and who were his wife and children?
Thank you,
Looking for information on William JOHNSON and his wife, Amy, who appear to have lived in Otsego Co abt 1809 where his second son, Harry was born.

Children: Alonzo (b. btw 1805-6 in CT), Harry (b. abt 1809 in Otsego Co, NY), Lorenzo (b. btw 1821-3 in Allegany Co, NY). He appears to have moved to CT, married there and had his first child there.

Seeking parents of JOHN JORDAN born 6 Mar 1764 where I know not. He died 26 Jan 1850 Pike, Wyoming Co, NY, but buried in family lot in Friendship, Allegany Co., NY.
He married 15 Sep 1785 probably in or near Goshen, Orange Co., NY Julia SWARTOUT born 18 Nov 1769 daughter of Jacobus SWARTOUT who before and during the Revolution lived in Sugar Loaf which is now in town of Chester, Orange Co., NY but then in town of Warwick, Orange Co., NY.
Following children born to John and Julia:
Michael 1786 in Orange Co
William 1788
Jesse 1790
James 1791
John? 1792
Andrew 1795
Betsey 1797
Isaiah 1799
Sally (Patty) 1801
JACOB 1803
Julia Margaret 1805
Unnamed son 1807
at which time Julia probably died because she does not appear in 1810 census.
John/Julia do not appear in the 1790 census of NYS in their own home with two sons nor have I found them in PA, NJ or any N.E. state.
By 1800, JORDAN family residing in Cherry Valley, Otsego Co., NY. From there, Michael, William and Jesse settled in and died in Steuben Co. James and John settled town of Cuba, Allegany Co., NY; Isaiah, after living with his brother, Michael in Steuben Co., migrated on to Allegany Co and he and brothers Andrew and JACOB settled in town of Wirt of Allegany Co., NY.
Betsey (Elizabeth) Jordan married Sebastion WELLER and lived in Canajoharie, Montgomery Co., NY. Sally married John DYGERT and lived in Montgomery Co, NY. Julia Margaret married Charles PHELPS, migrated to Pike, Wyoming Co. and it was at her home that JOHN died in 1850.
In 1840, JOHN JORDAN is still residing at Cherry Valley but by 1848 has migrated to town of Wirt and because he died before 1850 census was taken, it has been family tradition that he lived with his son, JACOB, but his will probate states he died at home of his daughter in Wyoming Co.
ANY help would be appreciate on these above mentioned families....
JENNINGS
Would like to talk to anyone having any JENNINGS family in their database from Suffolk Co., NY. Believe my Joannah JENNINGS may have come from the JENNINGS who lived on L.I. but cannot prove it. She was born 30 Dec 1792 and probably married in Otsego Co., NY on 5 Oct 1815 to Benjamin KINGSBURY. She died 30 Mar 1872 Rushford, Allegany Co., NY. Anxious to hear from you if you have JENNINGS in database. She had a sister Hannah who attested to her marriage to Benjamin when Joannah applied for widow's pension (War of 1812).

JOHNSON
Charles M. JOHNSON b. May 1, 1830 d. Dec. 22, 1908 - my great great grandfather, is listed on 1855 - 1875 Town of Burlington, Otsego Co., NY census as having been born in Madison Co., NY. He was raised from early childhood by Lewis & Nancy SWINNEY, who first appear, without Charles in their household, on the 1830 census of Brookfield, Madison Co., NY. This census also lists Tylor JOHNSON as the only household of this surname to contain male children under the age of 5 yrs. in Brookfield. It is beleived that Charles attended school in Edmeston, Otsego Co., NY circa 1840-1850 possibly under the name of Charles SWINNEY and first used the name JOHNSON prior to his marriage to Betsey R. ARNOLD abt. 1860 in Burlington, NY where they resided. Their son Frank A. JOHNSON was born here in 1860 and in his adulthood became principle of Laurel Ave. School #10 in Binghamton, NY where Charles moved and died after the death of his wife Betsey.
